Arnold Schwarzenegger will be in Enthiran 2 (Robot 2), director Shankar has confirmed. Rumours of Schwarzenegger's involvement in the film have been making the rounds ever since the Terminator star attended the music launch event of Shankar's Vikram-starrer I in September last year.

According to reports, Rajnikanth and Schwarzenegger will soon visit Los Angeles to test their looks for the film. Shankar had, a few days ago, revealed that the premise of Robot 2 is loosely inspired by the Ramayana. The director has ambitious plans to make this India's most technically advanced film yet.
